• Abstract: Absolute separable (AS) quantum states are those states from which it is impossible to create entanglement, even under global unitary operations. It is known from the resource theory of non-absolute separability that the set of absolute separable states forms a convex and compact set, and global unitaries are free operations. We show that the action of a quantum switch controlled by an ancilla qubit over the global unitaries can break this robustness of AS states and produce ordinary separable states. First, we consider bipartite qubit systems and find the effect of quantum switch starting from the states sitting on the boundary of the set of absolute separable states. As particular examples, we illustrate what happens to modified Werner states and Bell diagonal (BD) states. For the Bell diagonal states, we provide the structure for the set of AS BD states and show how the structure changes under the influence of a switch. Further, we consider numerical generalisation of the global unitary operations and show that it is always possible to take AS states out of the convex set under switching operations. We also generalised our results in higher dimensions.

• Characterizing the superposition of arbitrary random quantum states and a known quantum state [5.316931601243777]
  We investigate the superposition problem of unknown qubit states with respect to a known qubit state. Under trace-nonincreasing completely positive operations the superposable state sets are located in some circles on the Bloch sphere. For the high-dimensional case, we illustrate that any superposition transformation protocols will violate the no-cloning principle for almost all the states.

  Many-copy entanglement manipulation procedures allow for highly entangled pure states from noisy states. We show that using an entangled catalyst cannot enhance the singlet distillation rate of a distillable quantum state. Our findings provide a comprehensive understanding of the capabilities and limitations of both catalytic and state transformations of entangled states.

• Unconventional mechanism of virtual-state population through dissipation [125.99533416395765]
  We report a phenomenon occurring in open quantum systems by which virtual states can acquire a sizable population in the long time limit. This means that the situation where the virtual state remains unpopulated can be metastable. We show how these results can be relevant for practical questions such as the generation of stable and metastable entangled states in dissipative systems of interacting qubits.

• Separability and entanglement in superpositions of quantum states [0.0]
  We study the superpositions of a pure entangled state and a pure product state, when the amplitudes corresponding to the states appearing in any superposition are nonzero. All such superpositions produce only entangled states if the initial entangled state has Schmidt rank three or higher. We find that conditional inseparability of superpositions help in identifying strategies for conclusive local discrimination of shared quantum ensembles.

  The Morris-Shore (MS) transformation is a powerful tool for decomposition of multistate quantum systems. The degeneracy of the states in each set limits the application of the MS transformation in various physically interesting situations. We develop an alternative way for the derivation of Morris-Shore transformation, which can be applied to non-degenerate sets of states.

  We consider the entanglement swapping between 2-level maximally entangled states without limiting each subsystem to be in the same basis. For the entanglement swapping between any number of d-level maximally entangled states, we consider the case realized by performing a joint measurement on the particles. We propose the entanglement swapping chains for maximally entangled states, which is realized by performing measurements on multiple particles.

• Entanglement for any definition of two subsystems [0.0]
  In this work we define the notion of an "absolutely entangled set" of quantum states. For any possible choice of global basis, at least one of the states in the set is entangled. We present a minimum example of this phenomenon, with a set of four states in $mathbbC4 = mathbbC2 otimes mathbbC2$.
